 Krebs-Netzwerk, Inc. provides emergency financial assistance to women and men in Central Florida who are currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer. We believe the patient’s focus should be on recovery, not on worry of unpaid expenses. Krebs-Netzwerk contributes to help pay for essentials such as, rent/mortgage payments, utility bills, gas to travel to treatments, groceries, monthly insurance premiums, co-pays for medication etc.
To qualify for assistance through the Krebs-Netzwerk breast cancer assistance fund you must meet the following criteria:

- You must currently be in treatment for breast cancer.
- You must demonstrate financial need and your household income must not exceed 200% of the federal poverty level (see chart below). This is based on your CURRENT income (not what you used to make last year or before breast cancer). Household income includes EVERYONE living in your household.

Dear Krebs-Netzwerk-
I can't tell you how touched I was to get your note. I don't know what to say. The past two years have been very hard for me and my family, but by the grace of God I am still here with my kids and my awesome husband. Times have been hard for us in many ways. I believe that God sends his children angels to take care of them and I believe that you ladies are some of his angels. I thank God for all your kindness and for blessing my family. It is I who is impressed with you ladies. It will be my honor to be part of Krebs-Netzwerk. I wish you all a very Blessed Christmas and New Year.
